- When it comes to time-lapse shooting…I'm quite happy with this camera.…It gives you the ability to shoot raw or JPEG images…and produce a time-lapse movie simultaneously.…If we go into the menu here you'll notice…that we have both quick menus, which are very accessible…and we can access the primary menu page.…This allow me to go to dedicated time-lapse settings…and if I turn these on…you'll notice great controls.…You could dial a frame count of up to 999 images.…

Now this isn't quite as useful as the GH4's…ability to take that one place more to 9,999…but it still allows for a pretty versatile control built in.…I also find that with that accessory port…I can use a tool like trigger trap or a…remote intervalometer and precisely take control…of the camera without relying on the…built in intervalometer.…You'll also find controls for being able…to enter a waiting time.…This allows you to set a delay…for how long it takes before it kicks in.…

This could be quite useful if you don't want to have to say,…"Oh start at this precise time."…
